Customers are saying

Customers recognize the Seagate Backup Plus Desktop for Mac as an easy-to-use and reliable external hard drive with ample storage. Positive feedback frequently highlights its compatibility with Mac computers, seamless Time Machine integration, and quiet operation. The affordable price point is also frequently praised. While some users note the need for a power source, this is generally outweighed by the drive's numerous benefits.

    Used this for backing up my MacBook. The USB 3.0 gives great speed for quick incremental backups.

    The first one I bought I had to return, the USB port was deformed. The second works great, but compared to others I've used, it feels VERY cheap, and the corners of it are extremely sharp.
